The Berger 6.5 PRC 153.5gr Hybrid Target Rifle Ammunition (Berger part no. 50030) is a long-range precision load that Berger calls an unmatched solution for PRC fans. It is a 6.5 PRC load built around a 153.5-grain bullet from Berger’s ammunition line, rated at 2900 fps. The 153.5 grain Long Range Hybrid Target (LRHT) projectile is heaviest-in-class and, Berger says, pairs with the PRC design to produce the ultimate target round out to 1,000 yards and beyond. Berger loads all of its ammunition with premium Vihtavuori propellants and Lapua cartridge cases. Each box contains 20 rounds.
